SLF having fun

Just landed at Dublin in the Saab Loganair from City of Derry airport. After reading the METAR I can imagine that the aircraft was close to the limits (maybe someone can confirm).

Personally I had a great time and enjoyed being thrown around. Person behind me was terrified of flying. Crew did a great job of making sure she was happy.

Yesterday morning I flew Newcastle to Belfast as SLF. Quite an impressive site seeing the cloud clear overhead IOM. Landing with blue sky and light breeze.

Personally I think the media are short on stories. Nothing that different compared to previous systems that have come in from the Atlantic. I guess the forcasted low pressure got people excited.

Anyway - SLF tomorrow morning to Brussels from Dublin
